Mark Rosanowski • December 10th, 2024 10:40 AM

Race 1
3 Bet Rejected
Showed ability in her first two starts at Hatrick then won a trial here on November 26 in 21.72s which measures up well with her opposition. Was backed immediately the market opened.
Selections: 3-4-5-6
Race 2
4 Big Time Potter
New to this track but has beaten the favourite 5 Big Time Denbe at Hatrick & had a genuine excuse last start when stepping into c1. Worth the risk at the opening quote of $5.
Selections: 4-5-6-3
Race 3
6 Talkin' Trash
Beat the impressive More Magic here before that dog got his revenge on his favoured Hatrick track on Friday. Appears to be back near peak form which is probably good enough for this field.
Selections: 6-4-3-7
Race 4
2 Big Time London
Impressive win in this class at Cambridge. Should add the bonus win in the grade today.
Selections: 2-6-7-4
Race 5
6 Big Time Hilary
Narrow but impressive win here three back & she's been good at Hatrick since. Beat the favourite 8 Big Time Theo on Friday.
Open field for last leg of quaddie.
Selections: 6-5-8-7
Race 6
2 Big Time Ness
Tidy win at Cambridge in a good time. Should go on with it now. 6 Big Time Aly was nosed out of victory here last week then posted her first win at Hatrick on Friday. Quaddie back-up.
Selections: 2-6-3-1
Race 7
4 Big Time Atlas
Second in a sprint final at Hatrick on Friday. Furthered his impressive record on this track at his last visit but it was back on October 1. 7 Big Time Messi is in career best form. Poor record from the outside traps but 8 of those 9 misses were over more ground.
Selections: 4-7-8-1
Race 8
6 Blazin' Master
Posted career win 42 on Friday at Hatrick & has an imposing record here. Not done with yet. 4 Fool Me Once was hampered by a scouter when second at Cambridge. Loves this circuit. 7 Big Time Moose is an outstanding hound resuming. Unbeaten in three starts here & trialed in a tidy 25.84s here two weeks ago.
Selections: 6-4-7-5
Race 9
2 Big Time Brick
Has been good from wide draws lately. Better suited closer in today. 8 Goldstar Monaro was an impressive sprint winner in this class at Addington last week. This is a good field for him to try 457m on a new track. Keep safe. 5 Opawa Richard downgrades & he ran on OK over 375m last Tuesday. Has a fair record at this trip.
Selections: 2-8-5-3
Best: Big Time London
Next: Big Time Ness
Value: Big Time Hilary
